ALL YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT  FILMS & SERIES

Eric, a Series Created by Abi Morgan and Directed by Lucy Forbes

 

SYNOPSIS

In six episodes, the series explores the desperate search of Vincent, a renowned puppeteer, to find his son Edgar, who disappeared in 1980s New York.

Consumed by grief and guilt, Vincent begins to lose his grip on reality, clinging to Eric, a puppet created by Edgar. Benedict Cumberbatch stars in the lead role, accompanied by Gaby Hoffmann and McKinley Belcher III.

 

REVIEW

I wondered if I would get hooked. A grim story, a man talking to puppets… It didn’t really appeal to me.

That was without considering all the strong points of this series set in the 1980s.

Vincent and his wife Cassie argue every day. Their son, Edgar, retreats into the imaginary world he has created to escape when he hears them.

He draws, like his father, who is the creator and host of a children’s puppet show, “Good Day Sunshine.”

Vincent is violent, yells at his son and wife, and is an odious character with his colleagues.

We soon discover that he is an addict, an alcoholic, and uses drugs. He has behavioral disorders close to schizophrenia. At work, his position is threatened. A new, more modern solution must be found to retain the young audience.

The morning after a particularly violent argument between Vincent and Cassie, Edgar disappears. In his room are drawings of a puppet he invented, Eric, to help his father. Eric is a giant blue puppet with fangs, somewhat reminiscent of a character from “Monsters, Inc.” Edgar, who is afraid of monsters, invented one for himself—giant and protective.

HISTORICAL CONTEXT

We soon learn that Edgar’s family lives near a nightclub owned by someone arrested several years earlier for child prostitution.

The black investigator, Michael Detroit, in charge of the investigation into Edgar’s disappearance, knows this man well, having arrested him a few years earlier. However, within his precinct, he faces a racist and homophobic superior. Michael is forced to hide his homosexuality. When he returns home, he cares for his white partner who has AIDS.

The disappearance of another child, a black boy who has been missing for six months and whose case was mishandled for obvious racist reasons, resurfaces in the investigation.

The story unfolds in 1980s New York. A mayor campaigns to rid the city of delinquents, the homeless, but especially the most vulnerable people. Some of them live under the subway…

 

Brilliantly performed by a stellar cast.

This brilliant series highlights the human monsters living at the heart of our society: corruption, drugs, pedophilia, homophobia, violence…

 

Benedict Cumberbatch portrays this father on the brink of madness who only talks to Eric, convinced it will bring his son back. Gaby Hoffmann subtly plays the mother, oscillating between distress and panic attacks.

Finally, there is a revelation for me.

Actor McKinley Belcher III literally shines in the role of the private detective who must hide his homosexuality and stay silent in the face of a racist and corrupt superior.

He is heartbreaking and kept me on the edge from the beginning to the end,  reminding me of Sidney Poitier in “In the Heat of the Night.”

He steals the spotlight from the brilliant Benedict Cumberbatch.

 

How to be a good father? How to live together in society? The series Eric is now available on Netflix.
